By this same logic, someone in 2004-2005 could look back to the crash in the 80s and see they’re at the same level as that peak and a crash is imminent. In fact it was a year or two away and new homes for sale were going to go up another 50% before the crash.

That’s not to say that things looks good. Some sort of correction is probably coming but it could be another year or two or more.

I slightly hate myself for suggesting it, but are you essentially describing NFTs?

Mid journey and the like have already been caught creating shutterstock watermarks in images. Future models might be able to fake specific watermarks well.

Imacat ,

Isn’t that what NFTs do?

True but trust is hard to establish in decentralized platforms like the fediverse. As far as I’m aware the only decentralized banking is unfortunately cryptocurrency.

It's time to call a spade a spade. ChatGPT isn't just hallucinating. It's a bullshit machine.

From TFA (thanks @mxtiffanyleigh for sharing):

"Bullshit is 'any utterance produced where a speaker has indifference towards the truth of the utterance'. That explanation, in turn, is divided into two "species": hard bullshit, which occurs when there is an agenda to mislead, or soft bullshit, which is uttered without agenda.

"ChatGPT is at minimum a soft bullshitter or a bullshit machine, because if it is not an agent then it can neither hold any attitudes towards truth nor towards deceiving hearers about its (or, perhaps more properly, its users') agenda."

I work with software and my coworkers will occasionally tell me they ran something by ChatGPT instead of just reading the documentation. Every time it’s a bullshit waste of everyone’s time.

A lot of cities in California have problems with hexavalent chromium and arsenic in tap water and nothing is really done about it. It’s naturally occurring, abundant, and really hard to remove from the water.

Distributions like this are common in the natural world. Randomness and probability get weird. The phenomenon can often be explained by Zipf’s law.
